Hardly a week passes without the mention by
the newspapers of sudden deaths, and Of late the
alarming frequency Of the statement that death
was caused by rheumatism or neuralgia OF the
heart cannot fail 10 have been noticed. In all
probability many deaths attributed to heart dis
ease are caused by those terrible diseases, which
are far more dangerous than is generally con-
sidered Is there any positive cure? The best
answer to such question Is given by those VINO
haze been cured by the use of Athophoros.
Bath, Me, April 30, 1886.
Athlophoros knocked the rheumatism out OF
me. 1t is a sure cure for that disease, like the
bridge that carries us safely over Athlo-
phoros deserves good word from all, and will
surely get praise of all who have used 1t.
K. H. TURNER, Agt Hoyt's Express.
Manchester, N. H., March 10, 1886.
One year ago while suffering with rheumatic
aifneulty was induced by friends CT mine to try
a bottle of Athlophoros although had little be-
lief in anything of the kind, but, contrary to my
expectations. 1t gave me immediate relief, and 1t
Is with pleasure that can now recommend 1t to
my acquaintances, feeling sure that they will find
it the remedy Of the age for such difficulties, as
had tried everything else with little or no relief

Every druggist should keep Athlophoros and
